hi guys, would you consider posting these issues at http://askbot.org instead? It might actually serve two good purposes - (1) new users of this forum will be more likely to post b/c "what's broken on this site" will not be the first thing they see; (2) - you will increase activity at askbot.org

that said I don't mind at all to follow this thread as I receive updates by email, just thinking that some folks may be put off from using your forum by seeing this on top of the list :). btw, I've already fixed many of the issues mentioned here.

I don't know if this is strictly speaking "broken", but it seems odd to me that each question is listed under its own list of "Related questions". For example, on this page the list includes "What is broken on this site". So maybe not broken, but at least tautologous to the point of being useless?

...and also got error message when trying to post this. Others who post here, note that the post goes through even though there's an error--just go back and refresh the page rather than re-post and then have to delete the duplicate (like I did :)

At least sometimes, the number of answers/votes on a given question on the front page are just wrong. It's hard to give an example that will be current when anyone reads this, as it seems unpredictable, but you can probably find your own.

@kcrisman, those broken counts have been fixed, but the 60s cache delay is still there it will most likely go down or be removed in the future. as for why upvote a question - well maybe you have a point, but @ccanonc is right - the questions can be sorted by votes that's what "popular" tab is for.

it's possible, but in general people may not always feel like sharing their email address with everybody. the "From" email address is set in file settings.py with variable DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL - it's probably blank right now and the only way to access it is from the server

Thanks for setting up more specific subjects for emails! Would it be possible to put just a [fake] "AskSage" in the "From:" header? I ask because I'm looking for a simple way to filter the emails in Gmail to apply a label.
